About

Essentially, I’m a girl of many projects: a queer/ feminist/ geek/ activist/ writer, currently in recovery.  I think (and feel)  quite a bit about everything.  After spending a little over two years double-majoring in English and Social Work, I eventually realized that English was too disinterested in social change, for my taste, and Social Work was too disinterested in critically examining narratives.  I stumbled into Interdisciplinary Studies, a department that summarizes me (and this blog) about as well as anything could: Put plainly, I’m fundamentally interested in everything… and in the way that this Tiny Thing works with (or against) That Tiny Thing — and how they change or challenge or sustain the world as we know it.  I’ll graduate this December, with a degree in Creative Social Change, and minors in American Culture Studies and Women and Gender Studies.  Then I’ll be on to my next adventure, continuing to get outraged easily, to laugh even more easily, and to generally be fascinated at all times.  A roughly sustainable balance, if I do say so myself.

A lot more about me will become apparent as you read on.  But one special note: If you’re specifically interested in learning why I critique recovery culture, while <3-ing recovery, this is a good place to start.
